Managing Successful Programmes is the OGC Best Practice standard for defining and implementing change within an organisation.

The role of the OGC in driving improved performance within the public sector through Gateway reviews is raising awareness and demand for this accreditation across all areas of the public and sectors and within organisations serving it.

Managing Successful Programmes (MSP) is the leading open methodology for programme management.

It was originally developed by the British Government, and is supported by a full range of commercial partners.

Programme management is a framework which focuses on delivering business benefits through delivery of new capabilities from project and the transition of business operations to adapt to these new capabilities and deliver the business benefits.
